Plot summary: Peter left the world at a young age, determined never to grow up. With the help of his fairy friend Tinker Bell, he fled to Neverland, where he lives to this day with his trusted band of followers, the Lost Boys. He fights a daily battle with the evil Captain Hook, while the Lost Boys drive fast motorcycles and try to suck blood from the Coreys.

Peter Pan has a very complex psyche. It is clear to anyone who spends time observing his obsession with Wendy Darling that he suffers from an oedipal complex. He can't seem to make up his mind whether he wants a girlfriend or a mother, whether he wants her to read him a story or ride his Jolly Roger. It's also possible that he has latent homosexual tendencies, as he surrounds himself with under aged boys, and seems to regard Wendy as some strange alien creature rather than a fellow human being, despite the fact that he appears to have shared some intimacy with the aboriginal princess Tiger Lilly. 

And so he remains in Neverland, playing the same games with the Lost Boys day after day, cursed to never know true love, for he knows without doubt that if he ever returns to the real world, he'll magically transform into a washed up bisexual comedian.  (more) 

User Comments: Peter's outfit is more or less the same outfit seen by anyone who's watched the stage play, where Peter is usually played by a woman. His shoes look like he stole them from the Flash's tool shed. His shirt looks as though Barney Rubble had a garage sale and sold off the clothes from his "green" period, and his green panty hose look like they came right from Little John's plastic egg. And check out the mug, man. Spock ears, Opie hair, and buck teeth. A few years younger, and he'd be smashing Elmer Fudd in the head with a mallet demanding an Easter egg. 

Pan's appearance has remained constant over the decades, including his recent return to the limelight in 2002's Return To Neverland, which made poor earnings at the box office after being mistaken for a Michael Jackson documentary piece. The only time on record that Peter ever changed his look was during his trip to Japan, where upon arriving he quickly cut off his nose, grew his hair long, and donned a WWII infantry helmet.
